Small Training Bomb Fell From Navy Fighter Jet in Virginia

Hey Charles...

Sounds like this is in your neck of the woods.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The Navy said a small, inert training bomb fell Tuesday from an F/A-18C Hornet fighter jet that was heading to Oceana Naval Air Station. No one was hurt.

The Navy said in a statement that the bomb hit a wall adjacent to a warehouse in the resort city of Virginia Beach. Minimal damage was reported.

The aircraft was returning to Oceana following a training mission at the Navy's bombing range in Dare County, N.C., when it dropped the bomb. The jet landed safely at Oceana.

Navy personnel were on the scene investigating.
